Clare Valley Cycle Explorer

The Clare Valley in South Australia is renowned for its acclaimed wines, most notably its rieslings. With over 50 cellar doors, and vineyards whose heritage can be traced back to the 1840s, the secluded Clare Valley is not only famous for its world-class wine, but also its excellent gastronomy. In the towns of Clare, Burra and Auburn you're spoilt for choice with an array of cafes, bars and restaurants. In the saddle and under your own steam, the serenity of pedalling through the Clare Valley's natural splendours is a joy. Take in the stunning bright pink lake, fossilised remains of megafauna, through rolling hills spruced with saltbush and gums. Of course, pulling up at some of the regions most famous and lesser known cellar doors is certainly going to be another highlight of this cycle journey.
